I never eat dog. Nonetheless, I am on the side of dog eaters. What they are fond of eating should not be blamed.

More or less there are taboos in each culture. Hindu does not eat beef, meanwhile Muslim does not eat pork. We have to accept the cultures and customs of others, otherwise intolerance easily results in a war, as the history has proved.
